Fauja Singh’s son has lashed out at Amritpal Dhillon, the driver accused of fleeing the scene after a fatal hit-and-run accident that claimed the life of his renowned marathoner father on July 18, 2025. Dhillon, a resident of the same locality, was apprehended shortly after the incident and remains in police custody.
The grieving son expressed profound disappointment at Dhillon’s actions. He highlighted the lack of humanity displayed by the driver, who allegedly failed to render aid to his injured father following the collision.
This tragic incident has sent shockwaves through the sporting community and beyond. The callous disregard for human life shown by the accused driver underscores the urgent need for stricter enforcement of traffic laws and a renewed focus on road safety awareness across the nation. The case serves as a stark reminder of the devastating consequences of reckless driving and the importance of responsible behaviour on our roads.
